Public Service Announcement
Throughout I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Maya witnesses or is a victim of childhood trauma. As a child, she did not know who to reach out to during her troubling time. This public service announcement is meant to inform the audience about the prevalence of childhood trauma and resources to help aid children in need. Children may need help advocating for themselves or removing themselves from dangerous and harmful situations. By increasing awareness about childhood traumas, some of these unfortunate events can be avoided and help can be provided. I created the video using Lumen5.com.
